Kajol runs deep through our emotions. Her presence has been a breather for all of us. Her eyes always do the magic, and pronounce majesty. If being ‘minimal’ could be echoed, Kajol remains the name that pulsates through every corner. We have witnessed some of her finest on-screen orientations and performances. She’s been given everlasting screen relevance, time and again. And dating today, none of her characterisations ever gets old. You watch her, and you are taken back to where it should be.
Versatility is what we always look for when we talk about craft and, of course, actors. To call Kajol a heroine will actually be an unfair affair. For her intellect, her charisma has been way more than what we predominantly perceived of ‘heroines’ and ‘heroes.’ No one really holds an articulated relevancy like Kajol does.
With that, we will soon be watching her turning ‘majestic’ into ‘Maa’jestic with Maa releasing on 27th June. It is a voracious tale of a mother. She pumps female rage. Transforms into Goddess Kali, battling a demon’s curse. Sounds magnetic right there. After watching her slide into some of the unconventional roles since the very inception of her career, Maa pronounces uproar, this time. And Kajol roaring, with her fierce eyes, voice and verbalism—a spectacle that we are keeping our eager eyes on.
Kajol has earned her legacy. Enough said. Well, look at the box office numbers! She isn’t just merely doing her craft, but has proven how bankable her craft is. And it’s to be celebrated, cherished, with a thumping chest. Very recently, she took the crown of Best Actress (Critics’ Choice) award for Do Patti at IWMBuzz Digital Awards Season 7. With Maa, we can say that Kajol is all set to bring many more crowns (and moolah), just like she has over the decades.
Kajol isn’t just performing anymore. She’s rewriting the essence of presence on screen. As Maa readies to leave its mark, we’re not just anticipating another role, but a storm of spirit, grace, and raw power. This isn’t merely a return; it’s a reminder of why she has always stood tall, unshaken by time or trends.
With Maa, Kajol reclaims the fire that made us fall in love with her in the first place—only now, it burns fiercer, louder, unapologetically.
Kajol isn’t just watched, she is felt. And come 27th June, we’re ready to feel it all, all over again.
